Driving pressure (ΔP) is one of the most important predictors of mortality in patients with ARDS on mechanical ventilation—but it's often misunderstood or overlooked in clinical practice.
In this advanced mechanical ventilation podcast, we cover:
• What driving pressure is and how it’s calculated (ΔP = Plateau – PEEP)
• Why driving pressure may matter more than tidal volume or plateau pressure
• Clinical relevance in lung-protective ventilation and ARDS outcomes
• Evidence behind targeting low ΔP for improved survival
• Tips on how to optimize ventilator settings using driving pressure
• When and how to measure plateau pressure accurately
